All members of our Spartan community have the right to be treated with respect and to participate in community life with dignity. Sexual misconduct and other forms of violence (physical and/or mental) violate all members’ rights to respect and dignity. The University’s Title IX website serves as a resource to students who need information on academic and personal support, reporting information, and other general information on this topic. UNCG has resources that can help, and you have options! Check out the website and share it with your fellow Spartans!
The Dean of Students Office is a neutral office that provides support and resources to UNCG students affected by sexual misconduct (Complainants) and UNCG students accused of sexual misconduct (Respondents).
The dean of students office can:
Connect students with available campus resources meant to address or mitigate the impacts of the student’s experience or related processes.
Coordinate and implement Supportive Measures. Supportive measures are individualized services to restore or preserve equal access to education, protect student and employee safety, or deter sexual harassment.
You can submit this form to request information about support and services related to sexual misconduct or sexual violence.
Responding Party Support Services
Responding Party Support Services provides resources, information, and comprehensive support for students who have been accused of a violation of sexual assault, sexual harassment, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking. The goal of the service is to help ensure that responding parties develop an understanding of the process as well as information to navigate the process. The Dean of Students Office is not a strictly confidential reporting resource, therefore, information shared may need to be shared with the Title IX Office in alignment with state and federal regulations.
Responding Party Support Services can:
Help you understand your rights
Explain university policy and procedures
Attend meetings as a support person including investigative conversations with the Title IX Office or UNCG Police, disciplinary proceedings, or other necessary meetings that take place on campus
Refer you to campus and community resources
Secure an interpreter/translator if necessary

Assist in managing interim remedies such as academic, housing, and access to facilities
It is important to know that Responding Party Services are NOT…
